Guys to be honest there were a couple of soft tries leaked by the guys due to poor handling of kick-offs.
Also, just before halftime we had an opportunity for a dropkick where nothing was happening for 2 minutes before the hafltime hooter.

Boks need to man up and take the loss. For me, I can handle a loss like this due to an incredible effort by the guys.

Really bad, bad team management. All those substitutions in the last 15 minutes completely destroyed the continuity. The guys who had played 65 minutes and built up a winning lead were left sitting on the sidelines.

Great game all in all, kind of bitter dweet. To come back in the last 10 minutes all credit to the all blacks. From 65 minutes I could see all our guys were spent, the big difference is the All Blacks fitness and their depth/bench. We still have a lot to celebrate we basically matched the best team in the world over 2 games and we might have an actual
Chance at the world cup next year. Just think how far we have come since loosing by 50 points a couple of years ago. As long as we all believe.
